Each day – unchanged by human thought – has its evil
Let freedom ring

Terrorist Bigot Wants an A
Cruelty and heartlessness has sunk the boat of greatness in every nation. Perhaps it is time to ask “Why does the most powerful nation want to deny anyone the dream of living and working in America?” The political corruption that holds nations from achieving their noblest goals is not complicated at all. Babylon was great until it wanted the worship of all nations. God does not allow the type of policies espoused by the bewitched generals and mighty men. We know exactly how small and utterly condemnable xenophobia is. Terrorizing helpless people has got to be the bottom of the barrel. The terrorist bigot in the White House is in league with the German people before World War II, the Jewish people for most of their history, and with the father of lies.
We woke today to the news that PBG (potus bigot gloating, potusbigotusgloatus) has unleased the armed might of the United States against the poor. If his backers had an eye to see they would know that widows, orphans, and children have a special place in God’s agenda. He will act swiftly against those who pervert justice for these parts of society. Just imagine what God will do for those who make orphans and widows or oppress the poor
God’s judgment is already on the land.
- China holds 25% of America’s debt.
- Children will not learn when they are hungry and afraid
- Church priorities will end up like Solomon’s (or Herod’s) temple
- Chattel prosperity is an abomination
A nation full of preachers and powerbrokers has no excuse for not recognizing a failed charlatan when he announced his candidacy for the US presidency with a xenophobic and falsehood-laced speech. A nation that fails to protect its children has sold its heart to vipers and scorpions. Violent Devil-spawn are agitating for a war that no-one ever won. One-third of the American people, at least, have earned the label.
Pretentious Pawns
America is a desert posing as an oasis for white people. PBG’s language is quite clear. His actions are unmistakeable. Under America’s spacious skies vice thrives when the Attorney-General lies for the president. Across her amber waves of grain poverty ravages countless lives. The flag is an insult when the door to those who want to come without no intention to steal land and murder First Nations people is being slammed shut. America gets an “F” today and for the forseeable future because I am sure that a youth-driven revolution is impossible. Prove me wrong!
Powerless Sleep-walking potus45
When sitting with Vladimir Putin potus45 turns into a starter gun: loud noise and nothing more. When the National Rifle Association sits him down he reverts to the spineless uninformed and heartless version of his best self. When his nation needs a pilot he courts oligarchs, despots and authoritarian leaders and uses their terms define current as affairs: shipwreck. He is incapable of speaking a single coherent sentence, even when his nation is in another bloody crisis. Can anyone wake the sleep-walking buffoon?
Truthful rhetoric has the following shape
I am not a racist because (or “I am sorry for my racist behavior…”
- My dad…
- My mother…
- My school…
- My business experience…
- My political convictions…
- My
religious experience
Potus45 failed again on August 7, 2019, just as he did in business (his only claim to fame). The GOP is also stuck in a power sleep-walking round. Its only concern is that the end of rape, the end of religious bigotry, the end of the exploitation of the voters, Brown people women and children are on the horizon. May God rouse the bigot or at least shake his wife as a witness to the nobility of the American spirit.

Commander of the Churls
The likes of Pence, Santorum, Conway, and McConnell will see no opportunity for repentance in the familiar bloodshed of innocence. To apologize for decades of criminal and evil seems out of reach and not even desirable.
To expect an unprincipled buffoon to understand the evils of bigotry or take action to eradicate its grip, to lead the nation in mourning, to lead the nation in healing from its gaping wound of innocent blood is a pipedream.
Potus45 cannot do it
The hordes of fine Christian people will see no injustice in the wall policy and nationalist filth that pours out of the White House and many houses of worship, and will not urge the bigot-in-chief to apologize.
All one way
This is Yeshua’s message: not the great love of the Father, but the persistent holiness of God’s photonic being; what he is and what’s inside.
God is light and there is no darkness at all in him (a double negative, no darkness + not at all).
False claims
- If we say that we have fellowship with him, and walk in darkness,
- we lie, and do not the truth:
The real McCoy
- But if we walk in the light, as he is in the light,
- we have fellowship one with another,
- and the blood of Jesus Christ his Son cleanseth us from all sin.
The self-righteous vipers
- If we say that we have no sin
- we deceive ourselves, and the truth is not in us.
The just people’s experience
- If we confess our sins, he is faithful and just to forgive us our sins, and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness.
The lost experience
- If we say that we have not sinned, we make him a liar, and his word is not in us.
The Loveless Lost
Lost people will keep saying these lies. They despise unchurched people, lawbreakers, and, just like the Jews, will not fellowship with outsiders. Their love is a failure.
God is faithful; faithful before we confess and faithful after we confess. Darkness has a posterboy: hatred or discrimination in all its forms. Yeshua’s message has the teeth we cannot deny. His light is his love, his unfailing love for people, and it is this love that God has poured into our hearts.
Our sin counting exposes the lie in human DNA. Give it up! :Yeshua never asked us tally up anyone’s sins. Christ will always be separate from sinners. We stress about the thing we are saved from because we are stuck in denial about who Yeshua is, the finality of his sayings, and the fullness of the grace he gives to those who believe.
Our mixed composition
The wretchedness or our dilemma cannot be erased or eased by argument. We are not all one way. We have trial and error, acceleration and slowing down, ignorance and certainty, and we experience success and futility. Christ is all light and that is why we needed a Saviour and need the Holy Spirit and the Holy Scriptures.
Close and Flipping Confidence
A strange phenomenon greets us as we follow Yeshua and his disciples on their final tour of the Holy Land. To say the apostles were castles of knowledge and experts in anything is to admit that we are reading some other source. Their situation, as the end approached, resembled more and more the shattering of our Sunday or Sabbath school comprehension as the truth about Yeshua comes to centrestage.
Mark 9:32 provides information that shows that not only Peter, identified by his convictions that the Nazareth was the Christ and that the Christ could not possibly be the victim of abuse or murder, but the entire crew preferred to be silent rather than ask “What are you talking about?” Once our Lord began repeating his predictions the passion the best of heaven’s plan was unacceptable.
They didn’t understand what he meant and were too afraid to ask him about it.
Neither seeing all those miracles nor hearing all those teachings prepared them for the passion. I suppose we are not very much examples of being hip. We all have the Holy Spirit living in us and we are still not paying attention to Yeshua. We have our backs to him as we face the avalanche of Jewish tradition, the propaganda of secular authorities, and our own incompetence and fear of the Father’s love.
Our adulterous streak has puffed up our pride to the place where the last thing we want to be corrected. What are you talking about when you tell about your closer walk with the Saviour of the world? What does your breakthrough moment hold? More confidence flipping?
Do we look like you are ready to tell Christ what his fate is while we are afraid to look into Scripture and get our convictions shattered? If we are convinced that the answers are not worth it, then we should drop the Bible and the pretence of Bible study and just say and believe whatever comes to mind.
Life is Fun, But Not a Joke
